Amy Winehouse died on Saturday at the age of 27, and Russell Brand, who was a friend of Winehouse, has written eulogies of praise of the singer/songwriter in British papers, calling her a “genius,” according to CNN.com. Brand also asked society to treat drug addiction “not as a crime or a romantic affectation but as a disease that will kill.”

Dinner idea: Angelina’s Pesto

12 walnuts, shelled

2 tablespoons pine nuts

1 teaspoon sea salt

3 garlic cloves

3 cups basil leaves

1⁄4 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese

1 cup extra virgin olive oil

1⁄4 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes, optional

Wash basil leaves, and place in food processor. Coarsely grind. Blend in remaining ingredients ending with oil, and process to a very fine grind. Add more oil if too dry. Notes: Nuts may be lightly roasted. Store pesto in a glass jar with 1⁄4 inch of olive oil on top. Cap tightly and refrigerate up to two weeks. May be frozen in a plastic freezer container with oil on top, lasting a month.
